Ryan Injury Cleared Up

Donnacha Ryan shook off the injury sustained in the game against Dragons on Saturday to take a full part in training this morning with the Ireland squad.

Ryan left Musgrave Park with his arm in a sling to protect his left shoulder but it transpired he'd suffered an impingement that cleared up over the following 24 hours.

Not so good news however for Denis Hurley who will be out of action for between four and six weeks after suffering medial ligament damage to his right knee in the game against Aironi.

Nor is there any good news to report on Jerry Flannery, Barry Murphy or Ian Dowling who continue to rehab their injuries without any news of a possible return but Felix Jones and Peter O'Mahony are both expected to feature in the A game next Wednesday against Ulster in Belfast.
